I am currently planning my next build, I have a budget of roughly $10k AUD.
My two aims for this build are to not need to upgrade any part of it for a couple years at least and also to get as many pieces as I can with displays on them.

CPU:
Ryzen 9 7950X3D

CPU Cooler:
Asus ROG Ryujin III ARGB

Motherboard:
Asus ROG Strix X670E-E

Memory:
Corsair Vengeance RGB 128 GB (4x32 GB) DDR5-5600 CL40

Storage:
Samsung 870 8TB 2.5 SSD
Samsung 990 Pro 4TB M.2

GPU:
Gigabyte Aorus Master GeForce RTX 4090 24GB

Case:
Hyte Y70 Touch

Case Fans:
Uni Fan TL LCD

PSU:
Asus ROG THOR 1600W 80+ Titanium

Wondering if anyone had any recommendations on changes I should make, main usage will be gaming and youtube.
 
Something like this is what I would recommend. You can always add in another high density storage SSD later to get more parts that match now and this allows you to fit better matched parts into the budget. You will not need 128 gb of RAM for any game or amount of youtube in the next 10 years. I added in a much faster but still dense kit of G Skill RAM (2x48). The Crucial 705 NVMe SSD is much faster than the Samsung 990 Pro in certain workloads. The ASUS GPU I added matches the build better and comes with an LCD. You will not have to run an additional RGB software if you keep it all ASUS. As for the PSU, you wont need a 1600w so there is no need to spend so much on that particular PSU. The 1200w platinum PSU looks identical and saves you enough to fit other parts in the budget.

After doing a bit of searching and thinking you're right that having everything Asus is probably a good idea, unfortunately as the LC Gaming 4090 is discontinued I don't have any way to get one where I am, I can however get the BTF Asus 4090 which will fill the role a bit better and still have some RBG, I am sacrificing the LCD screen but after seeing how the Gigabyte software is it isn't that big of a loss. The rest of the suggestions are great as well thank you.
 
Built around the Hyte Q60 cooler with display. Top mounting is the only location possible. Might have to go with push pull config if the hose is short.

GPU has a small display, so does the fans. Mobo comes with 10 gig ethernet if you are interested.
